Great video. You're the best.
I like most of your videos but not this one. Seriously 4 tempos to get the knight there…I'll get hammerred way before that happens. Besides, I feel that these are more tactics than pure strategies.
Okay but your lip smacking is distracting
This is the area of my game I think is the weakest. Of course at my level all areas are weak. But if I had to pick one where I truly felt overwhelmed it's the middlegame. And this video has given me some clarity on how to proceed. Every video I watch of yours, doesn't solve my particular problem, but it most definitely give me a solid direction plan of what to do moving forward. Once again keep up the amazing work!!!
Excellent strategies for the middle game. Very helpful. Many thanks.
There should be ratings for chess coaching as well. Seems like your skills, as a chess educator, are higher than your tourney performance rating. I just recently gave up my fighting game hobby for chess. I was gonna get a heart attack from Tekken 7 (15+ years experience). Hard pass on dying slumped over a joy stick. The chess is less heart pounding and more cerebral, also does not tax my hands like fighting game dexterous execution. I highly recommend Tekken 7, if you want something a little more hype. Hundreds of moves per character. Just dont have a heart condition and you might develop one hahahaha. Great vid. I'll become a member of the channel soon. Let me digest the content first. im 1200
Your contents are always great as usual. Thanks so much.
@11:05 the Hopton attack bishop says "Wait this isn't a dutch. Why am I black and down a tempo? Where is the King, why am I attacking the queen side? So I am the light squared bishop now…. I gotta quit drinking."
In plan 4 also had queen bishop battery
Top quality tutorial. Just what i was looking for this morning
Best to storm the center than to storm on the flank…but if yu storm the King…beware of a counter storm in the center😅
good
Videos like this make me think I can go from this to playing like the instructor 😂😂
Best chess content , so relatable and non arrogant. There's many a GM could use a lesson from you in social skills👍
This was helpful. I feel like I'm stuck knowing how to open. I need to learn advanced mid-game stuff.
nice tutorial sir
this was super useful, it's not easy to find good tips for the middle game
The best is h4 h5 and mate
followed your advice and crushed my opponent, thank you!
No way you can set up the rooks and queen that easy haha. Kh4 will stop that plan lol
Ah! Coming after 1 year… Feels like yesterday
Thanks man. I’m very happy to have stumbled upon your channel. Your lessons are so accessible and easy to understand for lower ranked players (like myself!) and yet the info is expert level. Thanks heaps.
Position 10, NxE5, Thanks for the free stuff
this was one of the best short courses i've ever seen bravo!
Wow ¡ Finally, some powerful and practical advice for the middle game, which is usually covered with a lot of mystery by chess coaches. Many thanks, Nelson ¡¡
As a beginner, I find your explanations easy to follow.
thank you
When relocating knights, what about tempo?
plan 10, he got two bishops? one white and one black so don't understand the plan there really, please tell me I'm beginner
When you explained the thing about covering up the light or dark squared spaces for the opposite bishop my brain bro you dont understand what happened in there.
Very Good 🤩🤩🤩
Great video
I like your videos. want to play on lichess sometime? What's your name there?
Anyone else lower playback speed at points??.. im a beginner, gimme a break
Bro I'm not a good chess player but I feel like three extra moves to relocate a knight is way to time consuming for not much development.
love this channel – never heard of tip 10 – clever
I really like how you demonstrated these plans using common beginner openings like the London. Great video!
1) Open the center
2) Pawn storm
3) Trade off good opponent pieces
4) Create a battery
5) create diagonal battery
6) Rook lift
Thanks
This video was exactly what I needed. Serious thanks
Thank you very much publisher
1Break open the center
2Attack your opponents king with a pawn storm
3Try to trade one of your weak pieces for one of your opponents strong pieces
4Create a battery on a half open or open file
5 create a battery on a diagonal
6 attack your opponent's king by using a rook lift
7 relocate a knight to an outpost
8 locate a specific weakness that opponent has and attack it
9 eliminate one of your weaknesses before your opponent attacks it
10 choose one of your opponents pieces and you try to make it as ineffective as possible
05:36 yeah – eat the horse and sending a good night hook. I like it..
08:09 But if I Bxe7 I can jump in right on spot, not voyaging that other pony around.
Thanks! Hopefully we could have some sort of remake from older videos, since most of new subscribers would hardly click on some 1-2 years old uploads. Keep up the good work!
Always appreciated. Thanks!
Thanks!
Broo is speaking facts
Getting more serious about chess and I've been looking for a video like this for weeks. Thank you!
great video
